I am a Clinical Psychologist and Board Approved Supervisor. I like to describe myself as an enthusiastic, compassionate and warm therapist. My values are empowerment, self-advocacy, and authenticity. I place great emphasis on developing meaningful relationships with clients to provide a safe space to empower clients to improve their wellbeing through evidence-based treatments.
I am a neurodiversity affirming clinician and take a strength and interests based approach with the aim to understand my client’s needs from their perspective and life experiences. I use a neurotype/identity model instead of medical/disorder model and I aim to understand and respect neurodivergent communication styles.
Outside of work, I love hanging out with my husband, daughter (human) and son (Pip the Cavoodle). I enjoy swimming, reading, napping, and eating good food. I can’t live without coffee and chocolate.

Hi, I’m Aimee, your friendly neighbourhood Clinical Psychologist. I have a Bachelor of Psychology with Honours and a PhD in Clinical Psychology, with additional training in attachment-focused dynamic psychotherapy and relational psychodynamic therapy (the good stuff that gets to the heart of things and breaks you down before rebuilding you). I’m a Cancer but according to my patients I give “big Leo energy” so do with that what you will!
I work primarily in eating disorders and women’s mental health, and I’m passionate about supporting women through all stages of life, whether you’re navigating recovery, motherhood, fertility issues, pregnancy, identity, burnout, or just trying to hold it all together.
Right now, I’m in the same boat with a young baby, just trying to survive on very little sleep and a romantasy book always within reach (if I can keep my eyes open long enough to read it). I believe therapy should feel like a safe, human space where we can explore the messy, meaningful parts of life, with warmth, honesty, and a lot of dark humour.
If you’re looking for support that’s evidence-based, attachment-focused, and deeply human, I’d love to connect.
Areas of Interest:
Attachment-focused therapy
Women’s health, including PCOS, endometriosis, adenomyosis, fertility difficulties
Antenatal support
Perinatal support
Mood disorders
Eating disorders
Perfectionism
Affect State Therapy
Relational Psychodynamic Therapy
Aimee works on Thursdays and is booking new clients from 8th January 2026.
